Oh, you're right. Wish Super Mario 3 was the 3DS one.

Maybe someday. I wish every game soundtrack ever was on Spotify, even the beeps and bloops of the NES days. THAT playlist would be 500+ tracks

I didn't know about the physical game sketchiness. Someone's always ruining it for everyone else.

The "Epic Gaming" playlist on Spotify has about ten actual video game tracks and 40 tracks from geeky movies like Lord of the Rings, Thor, and The Avengers. It also inexplicably includes some tracks from The Others. Not much of a gaming playlist, there's no Final Fantasy, Skyrim, or other popular games I've been able…

Some of the discounts are alright, but I miss the days of free VC games. And no points for physical purchases is straight-up BS.

Yeah the dungeons in Majoras Mask were pretty long, but I think they're about even with TP. Since there were only four of them, it left plenty of time to do sidequests and explore the overworld, which I'm realizing is my favorite part of Zelda games.

Well, Skyward Sword has a lot more problems than just it's hub world. Skyward Sword also comes 13 years after OoT on superior hardware so I'd expect it to have a better hub world. But… it doesn't. Those paltry few islands don't amount to much and riding the bird isn't very fun. OoT's Hyrule Field had a sense of scale…

Yeah the other thing (and it's an issue for all 3D Zeldas) is it takes so long to get anywhere. Sometimes I hit a switch in one part of the dungeon then I have to travel 5-10 minutes to reach the part actually affected by it. God help me if I don't know where I need to go, I can spend half an hour combing every room.

I've been playing Twilight Princess HD here and there. I'm at the Snowpeak Cavern. I think I've realized that I prefer exploring Zelda's world to taking on dungeons. And TP's dungeon's are so long. They usually take me two hours. The design is generally impeccable, but by the end I really, really want to do something…

Pat McCrory put out an ad today using a sexual abuse survivor to attack his opponent for opposing HB2 (the trans bathroom bill with a bunch of other shit piled onto it). Fuck that ad and fuck McCrory. Hope the door doesn't hit him on the way out this November.

Metroid Prime 1 and Donkey Kong Country Returns!

God, I saw Power Stone Collection there at the bottom and realized it's a PSP game. Goddammit Capcom.

You mean, in the music player? Yeah I saw that, I was wondering what he was doing this whole time. Funny stuff

Yeah I like that feature too. The Wii U can upload to imgur! I also occasionally ask for help when I'm stuck on something. People respond fairly quickly.

Miiverse posts are 98% total crap, 1% helpful stuff, 0.5% cool fan art, and 0.5% overly busty fan art. They have an option to automatically display people's Miiverse posts after a level on Mario games and I always turn it off.

I think the dev team was closer to 10-12 people. They're probably millionaires now, but GTAV sold 11 million copies on release day and has shipped 65 million copies to date. Plus I think GTAV's multiplayer mode has microtransactions, so who knows how much Take Two got from that.

As for what I'm playing this weekend, most likely Twilight Princess HD and maybe Hyrule Warriors

Finally finished Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. I honestly think it might be my favorite of the series. Maybe Bowser's Inside Story has it beat (I played it and Partners In Time back-to-back so both kind of blend together for me), but it's definitely a strong entry. More than anything, I was impressed with how consistently…

I've always been partial to Armored Armadillo's stage music too.

I like both of those tracks from MM3. And Spark Man was my jam back in the day
